Odd scheduling note…

[JohnnyBuffalo]

The night games are the worst to watch on TV because it’s a lot less actual football.    More coverage from the nonsense sideline reporters talking about the lives of the players back in the day when they were little or some such manure.    
 

WHO CARES!!!   I don’t care who they are or what their personality is like or if they have a girlfriend, wife, kids, significant other who also plays on the team….are they good at football is all that matters.   And no I don’t mean illegal stuff should be condoned….I just don’t want to hear about ANY of it mid game.   
 

I want to see what the last play or series looked like from different angles and get a sense for what’s up.   You know…FOOTBALL.   
 

Oh yeah and all the crap in game advertisements and longer commercials….add the late night aspect and it’s awful.   
 

Ok going to go take a deep breath and go back to work now.   
 

GO BILLS!

1:00 games kill the whole day. 4:00 games allow me to work outside all day long, then when it starts to get dark come inside and watch the game. Night games are even better. 

 

Also, I am so happy there's no Thanksgiving game this year. Enough of that! 

 

How long you been unemployed?

Being on the west coast, I prefer the late games. London games are 6:30 AM here, ouch.

Easy answer... move to London.

[K-9]

As long as it’s a Sunday or Monday, I don’t really care when the game starts. But they need to get rid of the Thursday night football abomination, regardless.

[Fleezoid]

Thursday night football is like the weekly Christmas Eve. When I was a kid, we were allowed to open one gift on Christmas Eve. It was always pajamas or socks. Kinda feels like that's what Thursday night football games are like.

As a west coaster now, the 1pm games (which were always my favorite) are now 10am games which still feels odd even though this is my second season out here.
 

Outside of moving to where we planned to live for the last 15 years, buying a house, blah blah, the biggest benefit to the west coast is that MNF/TNF are done by 8:30pm.

HATE IT!!!!!

Sunday 1 pm is perfect 

Agreed. I can’t really enjoy the other games until I know whether the Bills lost or not. 

[Chicharito]

Fingers crossed for some flexed Saturday games. Sundays sux!

Welp nvmd lol i dont know how to do gifs like the cool kids

[Goin Breakdown]

More prime time game is more exposure for Josh Allen. More exposure means more commercials. More commercial is less time focusing on the playbook. Less time in the play book mean Buffalo will start losing. Problem solved we'll be back to 1pm games guys!!!!!!

Those late night 11-11:30 games would kill me on the east coast. So much nicer to have them over by 8. Yes… I’m old

[Mike in Horseheads]

Sunday at 1 is when the east coast games start, 4pm West coast.

Yea I hate the lack of Sunday 1pm (6pm UK time) games. 

 

Basically every prime time game is a day's annual leave I burn to watch the Bills. 

You get six f*cking months off/year!!!

[ColoradoBills]

I prefer the early games on Sunday (11am Mountain Time) but the late games at 2:00pm and night games at 6:15pm are not too bad.

Mountain Time is great for watching football.

It's nice to have a relevant team again but I hate all of these late starts....1pm Sunday is the best time slot for Bills football 

For fans that got work or timezone where the difference puts it in early mornings it's bad.

However, it m ay just give the team an edge as they are getting recognition and might just bring out the best in some of our players.  They may just show all the experts it's too early to shut the window on Josh Allen and the Bills.   If they become accustomed to the spotlight then it won't be a distraction when they are getting all the media attention week leading up to their first SB victory.

This is why I pushed for Sam Darnold  in the 2018 NFL Draft

8 guaranteed 1pm games

 

 

Even better, stick with Nathan Peterman and use the Josh Allen pick on a defensive lineman no one's ever heard of.

We lived in California for years, and I agree about the nice early start times.  Later we moved to Alaska, another hour west, so the early games started at 9 am our time.  That was almost too early.  

 

That said, if "the biggest benefit to the west coast is that MNF/TNF are done by 8:30pm" that's not really saying much about the west coast.
